That first framed oil painting you both looked at is of a type that always amuses me. These paintings were mass produced in the Far East in the 1970's and 1980's. Real artists sat in factories painting copies from photographs or prints. They could each produce very large numbers every day. At the beginning they produced English scenes but I think the artists took some licence with colours - perhaps they got bored! I remember seeing one with a blue phone box. They usually signed them with Western sounding names. I am old and remember them well from back then but maybe they still do them? The gaudy colours stand out like a sore thumb once you have seen a few. Best wishes, Roger.
Hi love your videos great tips and advice!! So about the Alessi bird a couple of videos ago, well was going through my old listings today and checking them in my book of infantry and came across an Alessi metal bowl that I sold so I looked it up and I could have got a lot more I sold it for £10 about 2 years ago lol , No wonder the buyer was very happy, but I’ll know for next time thanks to your videos. I suppose some things go out of fashion and others are in demand. Well anyway have a great week everyone hope the new October changes on our favourite selling platform go smoothly !! xx
We only went and went to a CarBoot Sale!

🙏 youtube is a wonderful place to pick up info isn’t it, glad ours has helped you in some way 🤩
I liked the banter as you walked around. Thought Faye might have lost her mind looking at clothes on the rail - what was she thinking?!
I know! I get easily distracted 😁
Is it a Helen Bradley the picture ? Her paintings, mostly in oils, typically depict life in Lancashire in the Edwardian era.
Ooh thanks I’ll keep an eye out when I get back to them! 🙏
Take my wallet three words I would love to hear lol
